Permission
(Reusing this file)		 The photograph was created in 1941. It was first published in 1942, when Adams gave a print to the Museum of Modern Art and it was published in U.S. Camera, 1943.[1][2] Copyright would therefore have to have been renewed in 1968, 1969, or 1970. A search of the 1968, 1969, and 1970 copyright catalogs and the Stanford Copyright Renewals Database found no relevant entries, neither for Moonrise nor U.S. Camera.
